My Shaker Cup Smells

[Kevin R]

So...I left one of my shaker cups in my car after drinking a protein drink for the past two months when it was 90 degrees plus and went to clean it out the other day and

HOLY ****ING ****TTTTTTTTTTT

aranoid:aranoid:aranoid:aranoid::yikes::yikes::yikes::crying::crying::crying::aargh::aargh::aargh::run::run::run:

The smell filled my entire house when I opened the lid. It is stuck in the plastic even after two super dish washer cycles. Shaker cup is going in the garbage.

Anyone else done this before?

 

[capnsavem]

yessir. i do it all the time.

my wife says she'll leave me next time i do it.

i wait til she leaves for the day then i pop it open to clean it... even when she gets home she says she can still smell it LOL

 

[hearno]

It didn't even take 3 days for my last one to get so bad I had to trash it. It's only 90 out but the car interior turns into an oven and bakes it. It really is nasty.

 

[Xuchilbara]

Ive done this twice. One time I accidently left a shakercup in my car for two weeks. The smell was terrifying.

 

[GetDatFool]

i just keep gatorade bottles and use em as shaker cups. am i missing out on anything with the shaker cup?

 

[OutWorkU]

I've done this at my office a few times. My co-workers get pissed lol. Usually after a few washers, the smell subsides but I've never baked a shaker cup in my car during the summer. I'd say it's time for a new shaker cup.

nah, not really. convenience maybe.

only that it makes you awesome.

that's all.

I think this is the #1 killer of protein cups, hands down. I've accidentally murdered several shaker bottles. One in particular I remember I left for at least a month and apparently the top cap was just slightly open... So I looked inside and there was a nice thriving family of maggots YUUUMMMMMM
So i said screw it, popped in some water and 2 scoops of optimum and chugged 'er down
jk

I cant imagine how bad that was, but I will tell you, it doesnt take that long to start stinking bad. Ive done that a couple of times, over the years and even after only a few days in the car in the baking sun, the cup is a lost cause. Next time dont even open it, just throw it away.

No doubt brother. It don't take long, and I won't open it either.

 

[Trinstop]

Ugh i know how bad it can smell after only a day, let alone 2 months. Throw the thing away lol.

 

[Leggo my Ego]

I do this all the time... clorox works wonders...

 

[kurtphyre]

I do this all the time... clorox works wonders...

So Clorox gets rid of the smell? I've never tossed one away because that damn Blender Bottles are $6 each. I just suck up the smell and keep reusing.

 

[Leggo my Ego]

Oh yeah. Just rinse it out a little and throw some clorox in there and shake it and let it sit and then rinse and wash... works every time for me

:icon_lol::icon_lol:

Holy crap I almost pissed myself laughing, thats so funny and so NOT funny at the same time.

:icon_lol:

 

[jfkimble3]

jeeze man even just leaving one in the sink for like 3 days ruined one of mine...but it was mixed with milk so that probably didnt help matters

 

[Jimmy Alto]

I rinse mine out as soon as I'm done drinking out of them, unfortunately someone in the house keeps turning them upside down and just the smell of that after a day is pretty bad. Can't imagine how bad it would be sitting in the car lol

 

[medims]

Dude you are nto alone. We have all done it. Soak it in a little bleach, dish detergent and water and it will kill most of the smell.

Bit of extra protein there I'd imagine! :mischievous:

I left mine in the car once and I swear, after a week, an alcoholic gorilla must've emptied it out and shat in it on his way home from a night on the guinness at the local curry house - i swear it was pure evil in that shaker:firedevil:

 

[Kevin R]

Bahahaha. Hilarity. Glad I am not the only one. I am guessing this is the top reason they can keep selling us shaker cups. Luckily I had another one that didn't take quite the beating. I am sure this won't be the last time...it is so damn hard to remember/want to clean it out after the gym.

 

[giantbrandon]

I lost one and found it later in my shed, under some stuff i was moving still had left over Purple wrath in it, i didnt even smell it as it had pressure in it chucked it straight into the bin

 

[PosterBoy]

Bicarbonate of soda is the answer. Put a tablespoon of it in your shaker and fill with water and leave over night and the smells are gone.

I forgot I had my shaker in my hockey bag and it was sitting in my hockey bag + in my trunk most of the summer. Going on 4 yrs unwashed hockey gear plus sitting in the heat, it was the most foul thing ever i made my bro take a good inhale

 

[n8te]

yea i left a thermos in my jeep for about 4 months last year (during the summer). Just kept looking at it everyday afraid to open it. Whatever was in it was black when I opened it. I gagged and promptly through it in the trash. That won't happen again

 

[JOHNJESSICA20]

I have like 5 shakers and they all smell awful..lol I usually let them set overnite with dishwashn liq and that usually takes care of it till i leave them in suv again.

 

[EZDUZIT]

After using, rince right away with soapy water. If your at the gym rince it out and leave
the lid off.l never store my cup with the lid capped.

 

[capnsavem]

can somebody produce a shaker bottle with a non-odor leaching coating in it??... similar to those stainless SIGG water bottles? the plastic in shaker cups leaches the odor like a mofo.

i'd buy it.

Good tips, along with the clorox tip, should keeps the cups stink free!
